In my experience (it may depend upon the compiler) the compiler would
allow me to instantiate an integer-type with enumeration_io, but it
would raise an exception on a *get*. Obviously, it would be better if
the compiler caught the error when compiling. Obviously, it would be
even better if I did not code the error :-)
happy coding...
